A little something from the Devotional “Jesus Calling” on April 10 (this is good….)

“Trust Me in every detail of your life.

Nothing is random in My kingdom. Everything that happens fits into a pattern for good, to those who love Me. Instead of trying to analyze the intricacies of the pattern, focus your energy on trusting Me and thanking Me at all times. Nothing is wasted when you walk close to Me. Even your mistakes and sins can be recycled into something good, through my transforming grace.”

Praising the Lord today, and trusting Him for tomorrow…

PS: A little prayer request~ Since “Nothing is too hard for Our Great and Powerful God”, we are eagerly awaiting what He will do with the sale of our home. We have an “open house” today. Please join us in praying that the right buyer will be obedient to hear the Lord’s call and buy this house!!! 🙂

Some of my favorite people & things

Most favorite people in the world: James (my husband), Nathan (my son), Abigail (my daughter), Mary (my mom), Gilbert (my dad), and of course, my brother (Chris) and his family, my sister (Rebecca) and her family, and my Aunt Bibby - who, by the time I was three, taught me to drink from a china cup, eat shrimp cocktail, and how to shop with "lay away"! I love you all!
Favorite foods: Hazelnut coffee, milk chocolate, & cheesecake
Favorite relaxation activities: Reading a Christian historical fiction book in a long bubble bath, & a 2 hour nap on crisp, clean sheets... mmmmm!
Favorite Sport: SHOPPING!!! (very similar to hunting, I think)... Favorite shopping find: an 80% off sale, and snagging designer clothing for $3.99 at Goodwill. :-)
Fun things to spend "extra money" on: Brighton, Vera Bradley, & Longerburger
Favorite John Wayne movies to watch with my husband: McClintock & The Quiet Man
Most frequently used daily Devotional Book: My Utmost For His Highest (Oswald Chambers)
Bible Studies that have changed my walk with the Lord: Experiencing God (Henry Blackaby), Living God's Word (Waylen Moore), A Woman's Heart (Beth Moore)
Favorite Bible Verse... Today: Psalm 9:10 (Amplified) "And those who know Your name [who have experience and acquaintance with Your mercy] will lean on and confidently put their trust in You, for You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek (inquire of and for) You [on the authority of God's Word and the right of their necessity]".
